Montepulciano, Pasta-Making Class with Tasting and Wine

Discover the art of preparing Tuscany's iconic dish, Pici, through our comprehensive pasta-making workshop in Montepulciano. Upon completion, indulge in your freshly crafted masterpiece accompanied by a selection of fine wines.

The Pici, renowned throughout the Province of Siena, represents a distinctive culinary tradition characterized by its handmade nature, distinguished by being thicker than conventional spaghetti. This artisanal preparation involves rolling out the dough and vigorously rubbing it between one's palms, an action commonly referred to locally as "appiciare." This simple yet effective technique has been passed down through generations, making the process accessible to those unfamiliar with traditional cooking practices.

Mastering the art of preparing Pici, along with other classic dishes like Tagliatelle and various flavorful sauces such as Meat Ragout, Aglione Sauce, or Cacio e Pepe, allows enthusiasts to create authentic Tuscan cuisine right at home. Our expert instructors provide invaluable guidance, ensuring that every step is executed flawlessly, thereby guaranteeing success in recreating these beloved recipes. Upon completion of this comprehensive cooking course dedicated to fresh pasta, participants will have the opportunity to indulge in exquisite first-course pairings, perfectly complemented by a selection of wines.

As a token of appreciation for your dedication and enthusiasm, we offer you the exclusive privilege of donning the attire of a genuine Tuscan Chef during this memorable experience.
